intrinsic goodness and it's a vision that to some degree we just tried. remember when we went into iraq and we were told that the people of iraq would know we were doing it for the right reasons and we would be greeted as liberators and there would be flowers and candy and we would use overwhelming force at the beginning? it was called shock and awe back then. but then we'd be out of there pretty quickly. it didn't work out that well. and one of the guys who's most responsible for it not working out that well was don rumsfeld who, hey, what a coincidence, just came to romney's defense on these comments today saying on a radio show, it was, quote, the responsible thing to do to make this argument. and this gets back to the real underlying point romney was making in his statement. romney said he made that statement to show there was a real foreign policy divide between him and the obama administration. but what that statement really was about was a divide between romney and the people on the ground. the press release romney's attacking came from folks trapped in the egyptian embassy feari

regularly to george bush, as was his right while people were dying in iraq and afghanistan, as it was barack obama's right. but i don't remember people criticizing john kerry or barack obama for criticizing the bush and/or mccain foreign policy. in fact in july, 2008, nine servicemen were killed in one day in afghanistan. on that very day, barack obama weighed in to criticize george bush and john mccain's foreign policy. i don't remember any of this media double standard saying to senator obama, isn't it inappropriate for you to criticize the foreign policy of the person you're running against? it's a double standard, anderson. >> is it the same thing, though? that's an ongoing war where, you know, if you say you can't comment on anything about an ongoing war that goes on for years at a time. this is a thing where hours matter and we don't know if people are alive or dead. we don't know if the attack is going on. >> anderson, this has been a 20-year war against muslim terrorists who attack our country. they struck four times in the clinton administration, once in the bush administration and

. afghanistan, pakistan, iraq and egypt. under president romney, how would that lineup change? >> he's not getting into line items here about which particular country would get money. he's talking specifically about the mechanics, the framework through which we give money and how it's implemented and what are the conditions in place. so, for instance, if we want the power of free enterprise to advance the developing world, we have got to work to remove the barriers that make free enterprise successful in the developing world. limits on free speech, limits on private property protections. limits on the rule of law. >> dictatorships that are corrupt? >> so we've got to work with international institutions and our own development agencies and the international community to put tougher conditions on these countries when money is dispersed. so i'll give you a real live example going on right now. egypt. right now there is a question. egypt is the second largest recipient of foreign aid, and there is a big transition in government, a muslim brotherhood president in place. should we be givi
